Sons 3rd Birthday Weekend

To start off with, I took off on Wednesday and boy was that fun. I have not had a day that I just did nothing but the basics at home in a very long time. I mowed the yard in preparation for my son's 3rd birthday party on Saturday. Then Thursday, my wife (Martha), my oldest son (age 7 - Nate), my...

Is OJ whistling "If I Only Had a Brain"?

Photos from the Tilt...

As you know, I've been testing the AT&T 8925/Tilt/HTC Kaiser. I brought it with me out here to San Francisco. The two primary features I've used so far (other than email and Diarist) are the camera and the built-in GPS. The camera is an extremely nice 3 MP (2048x1536), 2x zoom at 1 MP camera...

The Shouter...

You know the kind right? There's a guy sitting at the table next to us talking up a storm, but using a normal tone of voice. He's answered his cell phone twice in the last 5 minutes. As soon as he answered, he starts shouting to the caller. It's still early and the bar isn't crowded....

Sizeasy allows you to add items and compare the size to something else, like a pack of matches or deck of playing cards. For instance, I compared the size of the Apple iPhone, the HTC...

Frustrating...

Anyone else using Outlook 2007 for reading RSS feeds? I'm trying to get used to it because I'm in Outlook all day long reading email, checking my calendar, etc. There are a couple of RSS feeds I have that keep getting duplicate posts.

Cyberslacking?

If you are at work, chances are you are probably doing it right now. Walk into any large office, and you will most likely hear the telltale computer bleeps of chat programs and online games, accompanied by furious mouse-clicking. Employees may seem busy, but many are wasting time on the Internet, or...
